Making Prints Using the Stack Bypass

If you are making prints on labels, transparencies, or nonstandard paper size stock, load the
paper stock into the stack bypass.
IMPORTANT
• Note the following points when using the stack bypass:
- Paper Quantity: one to approximately 100 sheets (80 g/m
- Paper Size: 100 mm x 148 mm to 330 mm x 483 mm
- Paper Weight: 64 to 256 g/m
- Paper which has been rolled or curled must be straightened out prior to use, to allow the paper to feed
smoothly through the stack bypass (allowable curl amount: less than 10 mm for normal paper, less
than 5 mm for heavy paper). There are some types of paper stock which may meet the above
specifications, but cannot be fed into the stack bypass.
• Do not load different size/type paper at the same time.
• Feed coated paper one sheet at a time. Loading several sheets together may cause paper jams.
• Depending on the type of heavy paper you want to load, if you load multiple sheets of heavy paper into
the stack bypass, a paper jam may occur. In this case, load only one sheet of heavy paper at a time.
• If you are making two-sided prints, select the 2-Sided mode. The printed paper may crease depending
on the moisture absorption condition of the paper, and if you copy the two pages as two one-sided
documents.
• To print on the back side of preprinted paper, load the paper into the stack bypass, and press [2nd Side
of 2-Sided Page] on the paper selection screen that appears.
• When printing on special types of paper, such as heavy paper or transparencies, be sure to correctly set
the paper type, especially if you are using heavy paper. If the type of paper is not set correctly, it could
adversely affect the quality of the image. Moreover, the fixing unit may become dirty and require a
service repair, or the paper could jam.
